【Melon Kanten（agar sweets）】 Melon is in season🍈 I made melon agar using melon skin as a plate. I used 1.5 melon pulp for agar for 1 melon. Therefore, the taste is strong without adding sugar💓😋 （Melon from Ibaraki ,my mother's hometown） #メロン寒天

【Japan is the rainy season☔️】 It is the season when hydrangea（Ajisai）bloom. It is a flower that symbolizes this rainy season. ※ However, even if the hydrangea blooms, eastern Japan has not yet entered the rainy season...It's hot and humid every day..🥺

【Somen そうめん】 It's June, But it's hot everyday. The other day, the following questionnaire was broadcast on TV. "The food you want to eat in the summer" 1st : Hiyashi chuka (made the other day) 2nd: Somen So I made colored somen (華色そうめん） Eat with soup (upper left)😋

【croquette コロッケ】 Japanese old fashioned Potato Croquette derived from European croquette. Boil and crush potatoes🥔, mix with minced meat, add eggs and bread crumbs and deep fry. We Japanese eat with sauce (ウスターsauce or 中濃sauce）.

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain.

【Shrimp Pilaf　えびピラフ】 Pilaf seems to be Turkish food, but it’s also a popular dish in Japan. Like Spaghetti Napolitan, it’s a oldfashioned Western-style dish in Japan. Fry raw rice and vegetable, shrimp etc in butter and then cook in a rice cooker. Easy and delicious😊

【Steamed chicken 蒸し鶏】 It can be chilled and eaten, making it suitable for hot days🌞🌞 Eat steamed chicken with sauce. My sauce is Ponzu, honey, kimchi, kimchi soup, and sesame seeds. Above is White Celery. (Recently I like White Celery❤️)

@annika_250593_ Thank you soooo much💞✨ It is delicious to season chicken (soy sauce, mirin, sake) and then steam it with the seasonings😋☺️ I use chicken thighs❤️

【Cherry season🍒】 Yamagata is the number one producer of cherries in Japan. Every year, cherries are sent from my husband's parents' house in Yamagata during this season. I made a small parfait while it was fresh🍒🍒

Now, The Ancient Lotus in the nearby park is in full bloom. A park of memories I went to with my late father and my children. Many memories.
